The New Man Cave
Well 2 blogs in two weeks, some one must be rather happy with himself. Indeed I am. Since I moved into Janine’s I have been playing computer games on a couple of cardboard boxes and a small stool which is really a foot rest for another seat lol. This over the weeks started to do wonders for my back (lots of sarcasm), so yesterday I went out and spent $150 on a desk and a chair. Oh did I forget to mention I also spent a ludicrous amount of money on a new graphics card Nvidia GTX 580 SO. SO stands for super overclocked, which brings big smiles to any geek. It’s been along time since I’ve had a Nvidia card, but I’m glad I’m back on board. Bye bye ATI.
Mt Skene 4×4 trip
Blog on … Hmmm it has been a while, but as they say better late, than never. Straight after work yesterday we headed off on yet another 4×4 adventure. The aim was to get to Crowes Hut and set up camp, but unfortunately some other lucky devils had beaten us to it. With darkness less than an hour away we decided to make refuge on higher grounds next to the remains of a skiers hut.
Fortunately there wasn’t much wind last and was not as cold as we thought it was going to get. We got a kick ass fire going while we downed a few beers and bundys. The crew consists of myself, Dan & Bryce. I wonder where we’ll end up today.
